December outcome

perhaps 3 out of 7. Comes back to the 30 - 40% I've noticed before:

Sagittarius -- 2 definite hits

Relationship make or break (10th December eclipse) - Yes
Career talks progress after 13th - Yes

Capricorn -- ho hum

Career choices will make you more settled after 24th -- not really

Gemini -- ho hum

Partnership matters, in love or business, are as the Sun is currently moving through your marriage / commitment / serious business partnership house in December during the first three weeks - not obviously wrong but not really a hit

Your financial situation is about to get a huge boost at the new moon, December 24 -- yes

10th December: lifestyle, your career, a romantic relationship, and most importantly, the way you view yourself - maybe

Leo - no

Great career news on 25th helps move to new position as early as April -- not that I could see

Brave Astrologer -- last leg

Happy New Year - and a slightly different forecast for this first day of 2011. Every sign has a ruling planet (yours is Mercury). The days when the Sun makes a special aspect to this planet are worth ringing in your diary. They are likely to be significant, action-packed days for those of your sign. So, ring the following dates on your calendar or diary and at the end of the year let's see what happened. Your dates are : Jan 10th, Feb 25th, March 1 and 13, April 9 and 12, June 9, 12 and 28, August 17 and 22, September 26 and 28, Oct 2, Dec 2 and 4

Of course you can't deny the possibility that in retrospect something on those days will turn out to have been significant, but neither the 2nd nor the 4th December felt special in any way. Just ordinary days.

Well, it doesn't look too good for the brave astrologer. For some reason the results come around the 30% mark which seems to be my subjective feel for accuracy. It raised again the question of how to use a better-than-random prediction than is still less than 50% accurate.

December

Here are some quite specific predictions for December, for 4 signs for which I know people well enough to be able to judge the accuracy:

Sagittarius:

Relationship make or break (10th December eclipse)
Career talks progress after 13th

Capricorn

Career choices will make you more settled after 24th

Gemini

Partnership matters, in love or business, are as the Sun is currently moving through your marriage / commitment / serious business partnership house in December during the first three weeks

Your financial situation is about to get a huge boost at the new moon, December 24

10th December: lifestyle, your career, a romantic relationship, and most importantly, the way you view yourself

Leo

Great career news on 25th helps move to new position as early as April

High places

Todays forecast for me:

Perhaps you now know you're on the threshold of something big. What you hear today should affirm that you have support in high places.

Out of the blue I got offered a 6 - 12 month contract at a more senior level than I would have expected. A bit spooky and, frankly, a surprise after the most recent forecast accuracy [not] in November. Also interesting in the light of Mercury being retrograde and everything therefore supposedly being slow according to some forecasters

The dog that didn't bark

Perhaps as significant are things that weren't signalled. I had 3 very important items of good news relating (respectively) to money, career and private life on the 24th / 25th. Not a word of prediction from any of the other 4 forecasts I watch regularly, but one called it:

This month seems to have everything, because lo and behold, we have a solar eclipse (a new moon) due November 25. This is the year's friendly one, so all good things should stem from it. Falling in Sagittarius (3 degrees), the sign exactly opposite yours, it will light your house of marriage and serious, official business commitments.

Mid-November

Someone I know well told me about problems yesterday. Here is the relevant forecast for this week:

Now that Mercury has moved into an area highlighting finances and ethics, you could easily feel to be put on the spot - and possibly by a family member who wants more support than you feel able to give.

And here is mine

Another possibility is that it's not your finances that will be stressed but those of someone close who then needs to lean on you
